Video Shows Attempted Shooting at Rochester School, Staff Suspended

The Rochester City School District has suspended three security officers after video surfaced on social media Friday showing a near-shooting Thursday morning at the Franklin Educational Campus.

The video appeared to show a gunman trying to shoot a student at an entrance to the school. Two other students could be seen in the video

Three staff members are on leave pending an investigation into how the security video was shared.

The district confirmed it's investigating how the video was released. A district spokesperson said because the video shows students' faces and they can easily be identified, it violates the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and said staff members were not authorized to share it.
